Maybe history will prove me eloquent

About Me



Layout Created at KillerKiwi.net

In July of 1985, the town of Bradford in the sunny north of England was thrown into turmoil and the voice of Rogue was born. Twenty one years later, after growing up on a diet of classical music fed to her by her father, and stolen CDs from her brother, here she is.

Having spent two and a half years studying classical guitar, 20 mins with the bass, and a deal with the oboe, to get good or get deaf, it's the guitar that stuck and it stuck good.

Currently in the process of recording her songs from a room, the living room to be precise, these recordings are a glimpse into the mind and soul of someone who has lived a few lives and is hoping to live some more.

All live photography, unless stated otherwise, has been taken by Spréach. You can see the rest of her work on her website: Spréach's Gallery .

Jigsaw: A song about pieces, and falling over, and not quite understanding falling in
